If Rebel Light is the fingering-weight firecracker, Rebel Worsted is its bigger, squishier sibling — and it means business. This is a woollen-spun worsted-weight yarn from Outlaw Yarn, built from 80% soft non-superwash Merino and 20% NZ Halfbred, and it brings the same colour-drenched attitude to a weight that works up quickly and wears beautifully. Cosy, durable, and designed for everyday use — sweaters, cardigans, hats, cowls, and anything else that needs to earn its keep in a wardrobe.
The woollen spin is what sets Rebel Worsted apart from the crowd. Where worsted-spun yarns are dense and smooth, woollen-spun yarns trap air between the fibres, giving the finished fabric a loft and warmth that punches well above its weight. The 20% NZ Halfbred amplifies colour uptake, producing the kind of saturated, complex tones that make each skein look like it was dyed just for you — because in small, consistent batches, it essentially was.
